Trattoria del Pescatore is a must go restaurant for quality seafood but we ordered the pastas which turned out to be a complete disaster!
Started with the bread which was simply amazing.
I loved the balsamic vinegar for the bread because it was different.
The consistency of it was like thick sauce.
Started with the pistachio crusted scallop which was slightly overdone and it was quite oily at the bottom.

Next was the romanesco, again it was quite oily at the bottom.
The reason I ordered the pasta was the Bottarga and Salmon Roe.
Had it changed to Angel Hair but I didn't expect them to over cook it.
The angel hair was so soft that the strands stuck together and they lacked elasticity and broke.
Again, there was so  much oil dripping from it.
I was more confused when I told the guy the pasta was too soft and he said that's right because I requested for angel hair instead of linguine.
But as a chef, different pastas have different cooking times which I thought they would know.

Finished with the apple tart which was just the usual served with a scoop of icecream.

Dinner finished with a shot of Mirtle and cheese.
Overall, I don't recommend the pastas so go for the seafood.
The only reason I had pasta was the bottarga.
